We've spent the past two weeks topping up the tan, but now we're back with an episode packed full of criticism, as we turn our attention to the most anticipated film of the year, Pixar's "Inside Out". We also assess whether Tom Cruise has still got it, in the latest instalment in the Mission Impossible franchise, "Rogue Nation," while Cal reviews Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara in "Hot Pursuit," and heavy-going boxing fable "Southpaw." Meanwhile, we turn our attention to the start of the awards season by digging into the Venice and Toronto Film Festival line-ups, touching upon (among other things) Charlie Kaufman's return to directing and Tom Hooper's latest piece of Oscar bait. Plus there's news of Mads Mikkelsen's unlikely collaboration with a pop star, Alicia Vikander's prolific year in film continues, and Xavier Dolan's foray into the world of voice-over acting comes as somewhat of a surprise.
